Not the sort of thing you do in January as you end up paying a premium.

January is about plugging a few gaps and then we'll see who the Doog has been working on for next season.

What you mean like when we signed Dann in Jan? Was that a stop gap? Was Ledley? Luka? Punch or Wilf? It completely depends who is available, at what price and what we can afford.

And whatever 'stop gaps' we might sign they, might well also want 2-3 years on their contract. So rather pay more and get the right man than get stuck with someone you don't really want or need for the next x amount of years.
